They dont have the talent like they have these past 2 years, but they are still a very solid team. I am glad they decided to play a 3 game series this time instead of just a 1 game series like last year when they got beat in the regional finals by Burk (THEY PLAYED LIKE CRAP). There could be a good chance for an upset...

Franklin is for real. West played them in a warm up, and they warmed up our girls pretty well, to a 4-0 loss!

I figured they would have lost some players to graduation, but winning is contagious and if they had any underclassmen one would think they just needed to fine tune some of the rough edges. :) Any chance of you going to check out the action & reporting back? :D

I can't. I have finals on Friday and Saturday so their is no way I would be able to make any of them. As soon as my Saturday exam is over I am going to Mineral Wells to watch my little brother play.

i saw a team about two summers of ago made up of girls from clyde....those girls could knock the cover off the ball.....a man told me that the pitcher was being looked at by lsu.....I figured those girls might be seniors about now...maybe they were last season....clyde also had a younger group of girls playing in that tourney...those girls are probably freshmen or eighth graders...thwy were very solid.
